STELARC
Third Hand
The artificial hand, attached to the right arm as anaddition rather than as a prosthetic replacement,is capable of independent motion, being activatedby the EMG signals of the abdominal and leg
muscles. It has a pinch-release, grasp-release,
290 degree wrist rotation ( clockwise and anticlockwise ) and a tactile feedback system for arudimentary "sense of touch".

EXOSKELETON
1999A six-legged, pneumatically powered walking
machine has been constructed for the body. The
locomotor, with either ripple or tripod gait, moves
fowards, backwards, sideways and turns on thespot. It can also squat and lift by splaying orcontracting its legs. The body is positioned on aturn-table, enabling it to rotate about its axis. It
has an exoskeleton on its upper body and arms.
The left arm is an extended arm with pneumatic
manipulator having 11 degrees-of- freedom. It ishuman-like in form but with additional functions.
The fingers open and close, becoming multiple
grippers. There is individual flexion of the fingers,
with thumb and wrist rotation. The body actuates
the walking machine by moving its arms. Different
gestures make different motions a translation oflimb to leg motions. The body's arms guide thechoreography of the locomotor's movements andthus compose the cacophony of pneumatic andmechanical and sensor modulated sounds....

Apartment
2001
www.turbulence.org/Works/apartment/#Viewers are confronted with a blinking cursor.
As they type, rooms begin to take shape in theform of a two-dimensional plan, similar to ablueprint. The architecture is based on asemantic analysis of the viewer's words,
reorganizing them to reflect the underlying
themes they express. The apartments are thenclustered into buildings and cities according totheir linguistic relationships. Each apartment istranslated into a navigable three-dimensional
dwelling, so contrasting between abstract plans/
texts and experiential images/sounds.
